So I rebooted everything and I'm now on target.

Does anyone have an 8" MA pier extension "EX8" that they are not using? These are still on back-order. Anyone done a DIY version that they can share ideas on? -- Edward

Alan, Can you please try the latest ASCOM driver (version 1.0.83)? I added the logic to reject guiding commands while the mount is slewing. This will result in an error being returned to PHD2, which

Thanks Paul, I think I may have to go back to the old driver. Cartes de Ciel has me sitting over to the west of the pole star at the parked position. Not sure why? Peter

Hi Vishal I recall this is a used G11 you picked up recently. Any details on the mount date and hardware? First I recommend doing a baseline guiding, it looks like your settings might be off a bit

Peter, J2000/JNow setting affects gotos to coordinates only, not tracking, guiding or meridian flips. J2000 is generally not needed for use with NINA and most other automation software, but yes, this

Paul, My poor addled brain finally figured that out. Currently, I use JNOW as there was an issue with there being an offset using J2000. Does this version of the driver fix that problem? Will this

You are selling an item that can be shipped rather inexpensively. So the best way to reach a willing buyer is with the mass market. Another is to watch the want ads on the astro sites. The 492 systems

Version 1.0.82 is not yet officially released, but available for testing here: /g/Gemini_ASCOM_Driver/files/Test Regards, -Paul

Where do I down load the 1.0.82.0 version of the Ascom driver? I can only fine Gemini.Telescope.Net (1.0.75.0).

There's no way for the ASCOM driver to tell PHD2 to stop guiding, but I can certainly add some checks not to accept guiding command during a slew. While I'm not sure that's what caused the wild slew

I becoming increasingly frustrated trying to execute a successful? meridian flip. Up until this point I thought I had a settings problem, for example setting the western goto limit value correctly.

Maybe the "stop guiding when slewing" under PHD2 doesn't work because it is "too late" and gemini already got some kind of simultaneous mixed-up command.? I wonder if via ASCOM there is a way for it

I've bought and sold on CN , Craigslist Ebay and Facebook Marketplace.. (Not just astro gear)? Ebay seller fees are expensive (10 to 12.5%).? Although you can do a local pickup only sale on Ebay,

Hi all, I've finally gotten around to testing the performance of my G11G and everything wenty great except for some pretty erratic behavior in the RA axis diring guiding. I used all default settings,

Hi Alan, Peter is going to list his better replacement parts. (He also has found an 80:1 gearbox that is not marketed by McLennan..it comes from vendor RS Components. ) To get to the ring gear: On a

How does one get to the thrust bearings? What's the source and part number for the encoders? What's the maximum slew rate with the 1024 encoders?

Nice work, all! I had a long deep discussion with Peter this afternoon...(he bought a used G11 mount that had belonged to a buddy of mine in San Jose). Conclusions: 1. His DEC was a problem but now

Here's a pic gearbox side.
